Kiwis in IPL

The auction for IPL 2014 is going to happen in less than a month. There can be a maximum of only 9 foreign players in each franchise. This makes it kinda difficult to pick the players for the auction. Because, there really are a lot of international players who are good.

Of the lot, New Zealand players are someone to look forward to. Though many of them are bits-and-pieces players, they have the right skillset to succeed in IPL T20. The format favors players who can bowl a bit and bat(actually hit) a bit. While not many of them can be million dollar buys, they do offer good value to teams who get them. Vettori led RCB succesfully. Franklin played a key part in Mumbai Indians’ campaign the last couple of years.
